ABSTRACT:
A fitting for convoluted tetrafluoroethylene hose wherein all of the fitting components are reusable. The fitting includes a tubular nipple inserted into the end of the convoluted hose, and the outer nipple end includes conduit attachment structure. Ridges and serrations defined on the nipple within the hose aid sealing, and a segmented socket of at least three segments interconnected by bolts compress the hose on the nipple. The fitting utilizes conventional cap screws, and permits field assembly and disassembly without special apparatus, and the configuration of the fitting produces a concise low profile.
